DOCUMENT:Q119812 27-JUL-2001 [odbc] TITLE :BUG: SQLSRVR.DLL GP Fault on Vines When SQL Server Not Running PRODUCT :Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) PROD/VER:WINDOWS:1.0 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS:kbBug kbISS ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Open Database Connectivity, version 1.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BUG# ODBCSDK2: 10118 (1.02.3231) SYMPTOMS ======== When a Microsoft Windows version 3.1 or Microsoft Windows for Workgroups version 3.11 workstation is configured to use the Banyan Vines Network Library and attempts to connect to a SQL Server machine on a Banyan Vines, but SQL Server is not present or not running, SQLSRVR.DLL will cause a general protection fault (GP fault). The following configuration exhibits the above behavior: - Windows or Windows for Workgroups workstation with Banyan Vines redirector installed - SQL Server Win16 client Network Library (Net-Library) installed (DBMSVIN3.DLL). This is the Vines IP client-side Network Library. - A Banyan Vines server with a PC-based service created. If ODBC is configured to use DBMSVIN3.DLL and an attempt is made to connect to a PC-based service name that is currently not being used by SQL Server (for example, no SQL server has registered with the PC-based service), then when the ODBC client attempts to connect, a GP fault will occur in SQLSRVR.DLL with the following message: Application Error caused a General Protection Fault in module SQLSRVR.DLL at 000C:098C. WORKAROUND ========== Make sure SQL Server is started before you attempt to connect with the ODBC SQL Server driver and the Banyan Vines Network Library. STATUS ====== Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the ODBC SQL Server driver version 1.02.3231. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
